I haven't sifted thru all these stories- what happens when the elite pole vaulter, rower, football kicker shows up on campus and turns out to be none of those things?

does this mean the coaches of each of those teams are bought out too? I assume these are non-scholarship admissions. So the premise is the kid would walk-on. Or does it not get to the coach level, some admissions person takes the cut and lets them in based on this walk-on premise and it just goes away.
